The first one...

OMG, what the hell is he talking about? What a douche(bag).

Well if you'd have some bloody patience, I'll, like, totally demonstrate. First challenge courtesy of that guy whose flat I live in. We will call him 'the housemate'. For reference purposes only!

So. What far-flung reaches of the UK Top 40 cosmos do we have to bring together in something vaguely resembling that bit in the Sex and the City movie where Miranda and Steve met on a
bridge?

BABYLON ZOO



TO


THE BEATLES (Oh, how witty. They're bugs!)

Wow. A real challenge, eh? Well... kinda.

There are three whole methods for doing this, but one involves Oasis so ENOUGH OF THAT! Another involves David Bowie and for one night only, I will show some respect.

Method one: Babylon Zoo's EXCELLENT number 1 hit 'Spaceman' hit the number one spot in
the UK in 1996 after being featured on an advertisement promoting the following products.

In achieveing this feat, they joined the likes of such pop 'luminaries' (from the French for 'lights') as Stiltskin and the Steve Miller Band.

In short. Nott hott.

But anyway, another artist who hit le top spot thanks to Levis was that fucking puppet thing, Mr. Oizo. God he was great. He had the dubious honour of keeping Eminem's debut single My Name is (Slim Shady) off the number one spot.

Eminem sobbed. Allegedly.

But like the brave little trooper he is
He struggled on and eventually went on to duet with infamous homosexual Elton John at the 2001 Grammy awards. Elton John has done a number of notable things, not all of them involving a set of curtains, but specifically involving George Michael. Only together could they face their shared fear of sunsets and got to number one in the process in 1991. Well done, we cried. And then thought better of it.

But notwithstanding, some people, somewhere in the world, probably saw this event


LOOK AT THAT GURN!!!! And the angle of the knee really CAPS it off. Applause.

At that extraordinary spectacle of satelite feeds, editorial independence and people having a jolly good singsong, George Michael got up and sung a little ditty called 'Baby You Can Drive My Car' He was drunk. But everyone forgave him because he had explained at length why it was a 'jolly good wheeze'. So they let him sing his merry song, seemingly forgetting that the song was originally made famous by The Beatles.

AN INTERESTING FACT!!!!!!! The Beatles never ever acquired an ASBO. WOW!

So, there we have it.

Babylon Zoo to Mr Oizo to Eminem to Elton John to "George Michael" to The Beatles

Discuss.

I would point out that challenges are welcome. And I will.

Challenges are welcome.
